2.13: The Importance of Having Internal and External Systems

(Ep. 2.13) The Importance of Having Internal and External Systemswith Ivy LaClair and Blake Brandes

December 26, 2017

Last week, we had the pleasure of speaking with Marc Guberti; who has written over 18 books and is the host of the Breakthrough Success Podcast where he’s had guests like Seth Godin, Neil Patel, and Ray Edwards. It was while he was speaking about some of his most successful guests and how they all have systems in place, that our interests were particularly piqued.

It was a great reminder of how important systems are, not only in business, but also in our general lives. It’s that concept of having internal and external systems in place that we’re diving more into today. Enjoy!

What you'll hear in this episode:

Blake dispels the myth that you must wear hard work like a badge of honor to be successful

The irony of saying you don’t have time to put systems in place

The importance of realizing you deserve to be supported

Ivy’s takeaway from Marc’s interview about a book that is sexist but also powerful in a positive way

Why we shouldn’t just focus on external forms of support

How “acting as if” can help you manifest what you truly want

The mindset you must have to be adaptable and successful

How we constantly set ourselves up for failure

The road trip that caused Ivy to change how she goes through life

How Blake’s productivity has increased 50% since he gave up his to-do list
